The local organising committee of the IAAF World Youth Championships, Cali 2015 have published the official bulletin for this year’s championships.
The IAAF World Youth Championships, Cali 2015 will be hosted in the Olimpico Pascual Guerrero Stadium from 15-19 July 2015.
"The IAAF World Youth Championships give Cali, the sports capital of Colombia, its first opportunity to impress on the international athletics stage since it hosted the 1971 edition of the Pan-American Games," said IAAF President Lamine Diack.
"If athletics is to remain the No.1 individual sport in a changing world, then we must encourage and attract the youth of every generation. The IAAF World Youth Championships, which began in Bydgoszcz in 1999, are a central part of our strategy to inspire kids around the world.
"The IAAF World Youth Championships are not just another competition but an opportunity for youngsters to gain valuable experience, improve personal bests, and to build friendships with their rivals from every corner of the world."
